The Sioux Reser walton Bill.
Special to the Globe

OpSCidl " tllS OlODS
WASHINGTON, Jan. 12 Judge Well
bOurn and Mr. Peele. of Arkansas, the sub
committee on the Dawes bill to open the
Sioux reservation, shut themselves up in
the committee room and worked steadily all
to-day to get the railroad section of the bill
III shape to present to the house. They
decided to shut down fat on the proposition
TO sell The roads Whole sections of land
across the Missouri river opposite Pierre
and Chamberlain. Although roads have
agreed to pay the Indians So per acre and
the United States $3.50, which amount
would also GO TO the Indians. the committee
think that it would create a monopoly to
sell the land in this way. The sub-com-
mlttee has accordingly prepared an amend
ment giving the railroad companies twelve
acres on the west side OF the river for
terminal ground. The committee believe
the roads simply proposed to sell town lots
out OF The section which they wanted.
Legal counsel have been taken Oh the
point whether the companies can enforce
the contract they have with the Indians
for this land, and it is held that the con-
tract is void without the sanction of con-
gresS. Mr.. Nelson, who is a member of the
committee, is said to hold that the contract
is good, and that the companies ought to
have the land. The rest OF the committee
say that if anybody is to be benefited by
the new towns across the river, it should be
the people who go there to make the town.
The bill will be ready tomorrow, and
Judge Wellbourn will call it up as soon as
opportunity occurs, which will be probably
the first of next week. There are no rail-
roads represented here, but it is said, that
they have all been advised of the intended
action of the committee. and, so far, have
made no protest. This apparent acqui-
escence is interpreted by the friends of the
measure to mean that the railroads will pre-
vent concurrence by the senate in the house
amendments to the bill.

Sabin and the Railroads.


WASHINGTON, Jan. Ex-senator Sabin
has prepar ed an amendment to be offered
to the Couer d'Alene railroad right of way
bill. 1t is similar to the amendment he
offered to the right of way bill OF the Atchi
son, Topeka Il Santa Fe through Indian
Territory last summer. 1t provides that
the road shall not issue more stock or bonds
than the cost of the road per mile. This
amendment Senator Sabin tried to have at
tached to the right of way bill of the Gin
nabar Il Clark's Forks road through the
Yellowstone park. He will press the
amendment when the Couer d'Alene bill
comes up. Mr.. Sabin said to-day:
/ am in earnest in tins matter and shall
urge the adoption of my amendment as euer-
getically as | can, when l have the opportu.
nifty. II my proportion could be applied to
every railroad in the United States to-day
there would be no need of the interstate
commerce bill. 1t would settle the whole
question of transportation satisfactorily to
the railroads and people. The great trouble
now is that farmers and shippers generally
have 10 Pay freight rates on watered stock to
twice and three times the value OF railroads.
l intend to propose an amendment to the gen.
eral railroad law, providing that no road
hereafter built shall be permitted to issue in
any form bonds or stock that do not repre-
sent the value in actual property of the road.

A Train Wrecked TO Crafty q

KANSAS CITY, Mo-, Jan. 12.-The
| south-bound passenger train on the Mis-
| souri, Pacific extension, which left Omaha
| last night and was due here this morning,
was wrecked near Dunbar. Neb.. about
| midnight. The wreck was caused by the
| loosening of rail done by parties un-
known. Several spikes and fish plates had
been removed and the train coming along
at the rate Of thirty miles an hour. plunged
fifty feet down an embankment and landed
| in snow drift. James Dewitt of Wyan-
dotte, Kan, engineer, was caught under
| the boiler and killed, his body not being re.
covered at last accounts. Frank Henowets,

city. was internally hurt and may die A
lady, whose name was not learned, was
badly hurt but the other passengers were
not seriously injured. as far as known here.
All We're shaken up, however. and more or
less bruised. The entire train left the
track, and probably the loss of life
would have been greater except for
the snow bank. which broke the
force of the plunge. Missouri Pacific
officials here state that the wreck is result
of third attempt upon the life of Dewitt,
the engineer They say some of the men
| engaged in the strike last spring cherished
grudge against Dewitt because he was an
active supporter of the company during the
great strike. They assert that the wreck
| near Wyandotte, for which Hamilton has
just been tried, was the result of plot
against Dewitt's life, but his train was not
| the first to pass over the track as they ex-
| pected. Subsequently they say a second
attempt was made and last night is the
third. Several suspicious looking men, it
is said, were seen lettering around the sta
tion at Dunbar last night. Tracks were
found leading from the scene of the wreck
which may furnish clue to the sheriffs,
and several others are searching the neigh
borhood and reward will be offered for
the wreckers. A number of California
excursionists were among the party. The
| belated passengers will reach here to-day.

Keeping Cows.

An English farmer makes the fol,
lowing valuable suggestions in regard
to keeping COWS for profit. "Roughly
speaking, then, 1925 may be considered
as the profit on COW for one year for
an ordinarily managed dairy. 1t does
not seem much, but it is, no doubt, far
in excess of the average; still there
seems no reason why it may not be
reached by more liberal feeding on the
part of our small COW keepers. The
mistake on the part of the latter ap-
pears to be in trying to keep too many
inferior animals instead Of keeping
half the number well. If we take half
a dozen cows well cared for, profit OF
at least $3.50 year will be easily Sc
cured, whereas dozen unfed, neglect
ed beasts, instead of making $500, will
be far more likely to lose this sum. A
well-known writer reckoned that about
one-twelfth of our milk went to rear.
ing and fattening calves, and | have
reason to believe that the practice OF
rearing is more common among the
small cow-keepers, and this may partly
account for the large number of third
rate stock in the country. 1t stand
to reason that successful breeding anG
rearing of dairy stock requires grea
judgment, care, and perseverance, be
